Jane’s Gray

This is the last page in my sketchbook, finished today. I painted an imaginary door on the first page and I kind of like to end a sketchbook with a reprise. This time, I painted the front porch of the house I grew up in. Not sure it’s my best work ever, especially the cast shadows from the rosebush. Still, good times, good memories of a place that only exists in my mind now. (The building still stands, but it’s been remodeled, new owners and it’s just not home anymore.)

I'm an observer, a visual notetaker, and a solver of problems… especially those problems that don't have an answer key. Roadblocks give me a huge creative charge; so does a good first-flush Darjeeling.
